Hi Brianna,
I just know this information from you, but I guess we have some people know about this event already. (Some of WMTW board members are in Academia Sinica and they used to work with CC Taiwan)
I might not be able to join this event because I would be still in California at the time when the event is held due to my business trip, but I will cc this information to our members to invite them to join (and I believe they would love to join this kind of event).
Thanks a lot for letting me know, and you are welcomed to let me know other information in the future. ;)
Hi Wikimania Taiwan members, just a FYI. ACIA workshop is going to be held in Taipei on Jan. 19-20 and you are welcomed to join this event. You can see more details below.
Best regards, Ted

And I know it's short notice for international travel, but wanted to make sure everyone had heard about the "Asia and Commons in the Information Age" (ACIA) workshop being held in Taipei on Jan 19-20, 2008.
This is a forum being organised by Academia Sinica and CC Taiwan for those working in the commons in Asia and the Pacific to discuss issues, experiences and development opportunities specific to the region. It should be a significant event, with Terry Fisher as the keynote speaker, and confirmed participants from a broad range of countries.
You can find the draft program: http://meeting.creativecommons.org.tw/ac:program.
The workshop is free to attend (with a token payment for food) and self-sponsored (ie participants have to arrange their own transportation to the workshop venue). The host organisation, Academia Sinica, is helping out with some inexpensive accomodation, but you'll have to be quick.
If you're interested in the event or the commons in Asia, you might also want to join the Asia Commoners mailing list - http://www.dgroups.org/groups/AsiaCommoners/index.cfm?op=dsp_join
